I actually feel kind of fragile after reading this. I'm not sure whether to be happy or sad so I'm stuck sitting here with tears in my eyes and a weird trembly smile on my face.
The mythology in this fic is staggering and amazing. And Morpheus is a complete asshole.
But, ultimately, mythos aside, this is the story of Castiel's love for Dean and what depths he would go to for his human. What sacrifices he is willing to make. And oh are they ever gut-wrenching sacrifices.
And the dreams! The beautiful dream life. It was like we got fic wrapped in fic and I only hope that Dean, Cas, and Sam got to achieve the kind of happiness or something close to it in reality.
Another thing I appreciated about this fic was the way it pointed out how both Sam and Dean take advantage of Cas and are always assuming the worst about him. The way Sam was shown the things that Cas had gone through for them had me shouting, "FINALLY!"
So yeah. Brilliant fic. You've emotionally ruined me for the night.
